Item Number: 137687 Title: Poetry in Beauty: The Pre-Raphaelite Art of MARIE SPARTALI STILLMAN Author: Frederick, Margaretta S. ; Jan Marsh Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780996067614 Description: Seattle: Marquand Books, 2015. 28cm., hardcover, 112pp. illus. Exhibition held at Delaware Art Museum, Wilmington. Summary: Marie Spartali Stillman (1844–1927) was one of a small number of professional female artists working in the second half of the 19th century. She was an important presence in the Victorian art world of her time and closely affiliated with members of the Pre-Raphaelite circle. Poetry in Beauty, the first retrospective of Spartali Stillman’s work, will showcase approximately 50 works by the artist. Spartali Stillman’s style reflects her British Pre-Raphaelite training as well as the influence of Renaissance art, derived from the many years she lived and worked in Italy. Works from public and private collections in the US, UK, and Canada, many of which have not been exhibited since Spartali Stillman’s lifetime, will be included in this exhibition.
